Hall Road, Lahore

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hall Road is a small commercial road near the historic Mall Road in Lahore, Pakistan. Like the Mall Road, it is surrounded by buildings built by the British before Pakistan's independence in 1947. The name of the road comes from the fact that the British had built 4 buge Halls along the road, which catered to meetings, exhibitions, etc.

Today those halls have been converted into commercial buildings and is the Hub of Lahore's electronics, TV's, music systems business. It is full of retailers, and wholesalers, and is an extremely busy area due to cheap and readily available electronic imports and pirated DVD's.
